With her team down two, Jones missed two crucial free throws -- the second on purpose -- with seven seconds left in the Rams' Class 6A state semifinal.

The Eagles fumbled an inbounds pass. Lake Mary guard Shakeyia Colyer stole the ball and, without seeing the basket, nailed a buzzer-beating layup to send the game into the first of two riveting overtimes.

"God sent me an angel for the last two games," said Jones, who also missed clutch free throws in the team's region final against Gainesville Buchholz.

Jones, a sophomore, paced the 25-3 Rams with 19 points, nine rebounds and five assists. Colyer and Sarah Taylor combined for 31 points.

Senior guard Kalyn Dinkins led 25-5 Edgewater with 23 points and eight rebounds, including the game's second best play -- a desperation 3-pointer with 18.7 seconds in the fourth quarter.

Dinkins' 3-pointer became a four-point play and put the Eagles up 46-44 -- before Colyer's game-saving layup off an Edgewater turnover.

But playing without starting point guard Tera McDaniel, who fouled out in the fourth quarter, ultimately hurt Edgewater.

"Aside from our point guard, [McDaniel] is our inbounder," said Edgewater Coach Malcolm Lewis. "We could have inbounded it and held it and won the game. Putting our players in positions they're not normally doing. . . . You could see how something like that would happen."

Lake Mary will play undefeated Miami Norland Saturday at 7 p.m. in the Class 6A title game. Lake Mary won the title in 2006 against Norland.
